Do lawyers get better loan rates?

Yes. Legal professionals typically access preferential rates due to professional qualifications, practising certificates, stable income, and the historically low default rates in the legal profession.

Can I finance a partnership buyin?

Yes. Partnership buyin finance is available for solicitors joining an existing practice. Lenders assess the practice financials, your share of expected revenue, and your personal financial position.

What legal technology can be financed?

All legal technology qualifies including case management systems, document automation, legal research platforms, practice management software, and IT hardware. These investments improve efficiency and are viewed positively by lenders.

Is working capital available for disbursements?

Yes. Working capital facilities and lines of credit can fund disbursements, expert reports, and other costs that are recovered when matters settle. This is particularly useful for litigation and personal injury practices.
